The goals of maintaining the connection between management and workers, and between company and customers, were at the heart of McDermott’s role at SAP. For example, SAP has an annual holiday party at its North America headquarters, and everyone in the company attends in formal attire. I try to go in saying yes.
The goal is to set a date and time and to work around it even as other meetings come up. However, I will say that I’ve worked for CEOs and if they were gone, out of the country for winter holiday so we were 100% certain they would not see us, me and other assistants dressed in a loose-fitted sweatpants/shirt set or gym clothes.
